All The World’s A Screen - 2016 - 7/10

This was a fortuitous mistake.
While searching for a Shakespeare doc, narrated by Ian McKellen, I stumbled upon this documentary and it is excellent.
Film adaptations of the bard’s plays.
Seems to target four or five: “Hamlet,” “King Lear,” “Macbeth,” “Romeo And Juliet”
Covers Silent era to recent productions, and a fair number of foreign interpretations, Kurosawa’s Ran being the most famous.
Several I never heard of and started hunting.
More mainstream releases are fine intros for novices, the obscure will suit buffs or cinéastes.
